    Help on interpretation of Death / Burial notes

    Hi again guys - I would appreciate some help with the following.

    I have got information from the online German War-graves Commission regarding a soldier I am researching. He died on 22.04.1945.

    Can any one shed some light on what could be interpreted with regards to his death / burial notes.

    Todes-/Vermisstendatum: 22.04.1945
    Todes-/Vermisstenort: b.Hrabin, b.Troppau


    It appears he was buried twice ?? Hrabin and Troppau ?

    His remains are now buried at the German Military cemetery at Valasske Mezirici in the Czech Republic in the lawn area for the unknowns.

    Thanks again.

    Mike

    The first line is the date he was KIA or MIA (Todes-/Vermisstendatum).

    The second line (Todes-/ Vermisstenort) gives the location (town/place) where he was KIA or MIA.

      " b.(ei) Hrabin b(ei) Troppau "- means near Hrabin - and Hrabin is located near Troppau.

          Exactly, Hrabin is nea Troppau and part of the Herzogtum (Dutchy) Troppau.
